I want to know how much processing time it takes for federal skilled worker immigration application, when you are in eligible professions list. I am in Canada right now on study permit, completed one year. But I have previous experience from India (4 yr).
You can see processing times for how long it takes to process 80% of cases at http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/perm/skilled-fed.asp
As you are legally living in Canada, you may opt for processing in Buffalo instead of in your country of nationality but be aware that if you are called for an interview, you need to go to the US for it. If you can't get a visa for the US, that would pose a problem.
